Post subject:  Your karoake system.....part 2.

All, I noticed that this topic was posted a few months back. I just wanted to see if anyone did any upgrade(s) to their rigs since then. Also, newbies like me can see what's popular and working equipment to look into.

Here's mine:
Pioneer V555 DVD player
Mackie 808s powered mixer
JBL MPro
Shure Beta SM58
BBE 482i Sonic Maximer

Will be getting DBX limiter and maybe alesis effects processor soon.

Thanks

Not much done in upgrades yet, did get 2 new compressors in the mobile system. Planning on new speakers & amps for the stationary system a little later this year.

Up to approx 3000 unique karaoke tracks now

Lonman, how would I incorporate the DBX 266XL compressor and Alesis Midi 4 effects processor iinto my setup? Would that improve my sound drastically especially the vocals? I really need help on improving my vocals and I am willing to do anything as far as buying any other equipment. I dont know what I'm doing or not doing. Please Help!

Thanks

Well, the compressor would connect via the "insert" jacks. You will use an "Insert Y Cable". This is a stereo 1/4" plug on one end & 2 1/4" plugs on the other end. The stereo end will plug into the insert of the mic channel & the 1/4" plug marked tip will plug into the input of the compressor, the 1/4" plug marked ring will plug into the output. You would then do the same for the other mic channel.
The Midiverb would plug into the EFX send/return loop. Send would go to the Left input on the Midiverb while the left & right outputs on the Midi would go to the left & right return on the Mackie. Now i'm not exactly sure if that will defeat the internal effects or not - it technically shouldn't so you would be able to run a multi effect if desired - like reverb on the internal & a chorus or delay on the midi.
